My VPS is $1.67 a month from buyvm.net I run a web server with family photo albums that are all static pages. My friends and I use it to exchange files. I also use it as a SSH reverse tunnel relay to access my home machine from outside. I don't really need to do anything else and it works well for that.

ipv4 addresses are approaching $50-60 per address. The days of cheap ipv4 vpses is almost over.

  So what about cheap IPv6 only VPS?

  I believe the price you are quoting is for buying an address. When you rent a VPS you are only renting an address.

    How could a company make any money renting an IPv4 address for $1-2/month when it cost them $50 for the address.

      How could a landlord make any money renting a house for $3000/month when it cost them $1000000 to buy the house.

        At current interest rates they wouldn't if they had to take out a loan for the house. That's my point. It's not profitable even on a 5 year return window.
